Loots not nerfed.. You have to be persistant


You people that are complaining because you havent gotten anything are the ones that drop the missions on the non city planets... I go there every single time and sometimes the mark is bugged like yesterday for example..


I get my mission its on yavin 4 i drive 6k away from nearest starport i get there and its updated 3k away i drive there mission incomplete because he is water so i have to drive all the way back and grab another mission its on tat and i get there and the wp is in a city so its bugged and the mark isnt there again i grab 2 more missions and both of them are in cities so they are bugged


My 4th mission i grab 2k away from kaadara i get there easy kill get a ca that sells for 10mill


In all that time, which was a long time, i only got one mission and it paid off... Go to the missions on dath, yavin, endor and stop complaining about loot

I agree with you. Sometimes the harder and farther you travel the better the loot is even though it's all random. I've gotten my best loots on Dathomir and Endor to be honest. I know it may be coincedence but it's what I've noticed.


Also try getting missions that are lower than your level as far as difficulty. Meaning: If you are CL 80, grab 78 and 79 difficulty missions. I have noticed that better loot has come from doing missions a little easier.


Last week I did 15 missions or so that were 80, and got nothing but bugs and a few finely crafted tools and maybe 1 or 2 trandoshan frames. I then did about 5 level 78 missions and got 2 clear qualitycrystals and a few CA's which sold nicely. I was blown away so now I do nothing but lowerlevel missions. It seems to work.


Try it.

I dont drop a mission unless its bugged, I quite like the endor \ dath ones, I find best loot comes from the lower level missions which are for people other than the Bounty Hunters Guild, could be pure chance, but im looting plenty, although things seem to go in phases as to what I loot., at the moment getting lots of schematics and no crystals or ca's but other times every other mission drops a ca or a ls crystal, Ive also had an anooying run on paintings as well. Ive done probably 50-60 missions since publish 22 maybe even more than that and the loot seems as good as ever.

Yea those paintings get annoying as hell LOL. Sometimes I'd rather there be no loot at all than those stupid paintings.

I looted a +12 2H LS accuracy CA yesterday (which is probably worth 15-20 million credits on my server), off a level 75 boss mark (gold brackets). It's there, you just have to run missions.

Loot hasn't been nerfed, as Blixtevrefers toin this post, but I do believe the loot system is not working as intended.


I believe that the random loot generator assigns a value to each piece of loot; a number which defines how frequently those types of loot show up; apparently, it's a dynamic system, and the values of items change over time, until you end up with boss MOBs dropping only a Jar of Foraged Bugs every time you kill one. Ideally, the system should correct itself when the server is reset, but that doesn't seem to be happening.


An example of a similar system outside of the game is this: My brother has a large collection of MP3's on his computer, and he plays them using Windows media player on random mode. The playergives a greater value to songs it plays more frequently, and ends up, over time, playinga few songs over and over again,only occasionaly playing any other song.

That's odd, in my last 40 marks, none of which I dropped, I've gotten one CA, one crystal, and 4 schems. The CA was worthless, as I believe the best mod on it doesn't exist in game anymore.
